Most people think the neighbor pays. Usually it’s yours.
If a healthy tree in Girard or Fairview comes down in a storm and hits your house or garage, that is typically a claim on your homeowners. The neighbor is not automatically on the hook just because it was their tree.
It can go the other way if they knew the tree was dead or rotting and left it. That’s a different conversation. Healthy tree in a storm vs a dead tree they ignored. Those are not the same. If you suspect unhealthy trees on your neighbors property, there may be things you can do to protect yourself.
